FARM WORK FOR NOVEMBER.
In the Southern part of our territory
the Bowing of oats is now in order. We
are apprehensive that our readers will
•conclude that we are riding the oat
question as a hobby-horse. Be it so then.
If by our feeble efforts we can induce
the farmers of Georgia and the South to
rise to a full appreciaton of the import
ance of this grain, we will not have lived
or written in vain. There is no country
where farmers have been successful and
independent who have relied almost
exclusively on Indian corn for stock
ieed, as we of the South have been ac
custamed to do in the past. The advan
tages of oats consist not alone in their
intrinsic superiority over corn as the
main reliance for summer feed, but also
in the fact that the crop is much less
dependent on the seasons, if sown in
the fall on well prepared land, and in
addition, by dividing our reliance be
tween oats and corn, w*e do not “put all
•our eggs in one basket.” If the fall
sown oats should be winterkilled (about
the only risk) the failure from this cause
will be manifest in ample time to en
large the area in corn and other sum
mer crops. Even spring oats may gen
erally be sown after the fall oats may
have been killed ; and it is always well
to save a few seed to meet such a con
tingency.
WHEAT.
The time for wheat sowing is now
fully come, and if our suggestions have
been heeded, the farmer will be ready
to do this work at once. Remember
that clean land land is a very important
requisite for a successful wheat crop.
The land should be high and dry and
the soil closely and deeply broken.
Wheat delights in a deeply broken sub
stratum and a well compacted smooth
surface. Hence deep plowing and thor
ough harrowing,light covering and heavy
rolling are all important factors. The
practice of rolling the land after sowing
is almost universally practiced in the
best wheat growing states of the North,
and its eflieacy is often well illustrated
on many farms by the superior vigor of
the plants where the soil has been
pressed by the wheels of a passing
wagon.
POTATOES.
The crop should be harvested at once
—if possible, before the ground has been
frozen. Extra care should be taken to
store carefully, after the most approved
method. It is the height of folly to toil
late and early—the spring and summer
through—to make a crop and then lose
it by a failure to exercise proper care in
housing it.
We have long considered the sweet
potato crop as one of the most impor
tant provision resources of the South.
It takes the place—and worthily fills it
—of the Irish potato and turnip of the
North.
SUGAR CANE.
November is the time for syrup
making. We advise any reader, who
has cane to grind and make into syrup,
to procure a Saccharometer-- a simple
and cheap instrument, that will tell the
syrup maker the instant when the juice
has reached the proper point for syrup
or sugar. In nothing do the northern
farmers differ from us more than in their
readiness to adopt every useful scientific
invention in aid of the practical opera
tions of the farm.
COTTON, COAL AND TIMBER.
the king, queen and giant products
OP THE SOUTH, AND THEIR FUTURE
PROMISE.
BY D. D. T. MOORE.
The South possesses many sources of
substantial prosperity and wealth, some
of which are only partially developed;
but the most important, and those which
must prove reliable for years to come,
are the three named in our heading—
Cotton, Wool and Timber. Such at
least is the opinion of the writer, who,
though an outsider, has observed some
what and read more as to the resources
of a region now justly attracting in
creased attention from laborers and cap
italists in various parts of this country
and Europe. Permit, therefore, a brief
discussion of the merits and prospects of
the trio of valuable productions.
KING COTTON.
Cotton has long been the leading sta
ple of the South and must continue to
maintain that position. Tne Inter
national Exposition of its products,
machinery and manufactures, now open
at Atlanta, will not only give a greater
impetus to the culture of cotton, by the
introduction of improved methods, im
plements, fertilizers, etc., but also mate*
rially aid .in speedily inaugurating its
manufacture on a much larger scale—
for which latter purpose the numerous
and very abundant water powers of the
South afford superior facilities. If cot
ton is now King, surely its kingliness
must be made more manifest than ever
after the close of the wonderful display
and developments at Atlanta. For the
production of the great staple will not
only be increased per acre, but the ex
penses of cultivation and manipulation
will be reduced by the adoption of such
improved modes of culture and inven
tions as must be introduced through the
agency of the Exposition. With im
proved modes of culture and manufac
ture, a greater area available for the pro
duction of cotton will inevitable be de
voted to planting, so that the yield of
the great staple may easily be doubled
in the next decade—thus crushing all
foreign competition in supplying the
cotton markets of the civilized world.
And this would not be remarkable in
this age of progress and rapid develop
ment. From 1856 to 1861 the average
cotton crop was not over 3,500,000 bales.
In 1879 it was upwards of 5,737,000 bales;
in 1880 about 6,000,000 bales, and in
1881, according to some estimates, there
will be an increase over last year of
500,000 to 800,000 bales. This increase
has been produced by enrichment of
the soil, improvements in culture and
an extension of cotton growing over a
wider area of territory.
In the matter of production alone,
millions will soon be added to the
wealth of the Cotton States, while the
increase of cotton manufactures therein
cannot fail to greatly augment the pros
perity and independence of such plant
ers in that wide and fertile region as
are wise and energetic in their opera
tions. The great and rapid increase of
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1881.
the American cotton crop is therefore
so well assured that the efforts of the
British Cotton Supply Association to
build up a formidable competition in
India, Egypt, Brazil, etc., will soon be
more than counteracted. Indeed, no
one can estimate the benefits derivable
by the cotton planting industry from
the developments ana improvements
that must lesult from the unparalleled
display (said to be incomparably the
best ever made in the world) now being
made in the probably future metropolis
of the South. By the way, the concep
tion of the Exposition was a grand idea,
and the rapidity and perfectness with
which arrangements therefor were com
pleted, as well as the manner in which
it was inaugurated and is being man
aged, reflect the highest credit upon tne
energetic citizens not only of Atlanta,
but those of Georgia and the South gen
erally who aided in promoting the great
enterprise, for we already have the as
surance that the progress, improvement
and consequent prosperity of the South
ern States and people will be greatly
accelerated, and rendered far more per
manent, by the eventualities of the Ex
position.
But our purpose was to discuss other
things besides cotton, especially wool
and timber, in which many readers of
The Index must be interested. Let us
turn to these, though our space is be
coming limited if confined to that of an
ordinary and readable newspaper arti
cle.
QUEEN WOOL.
If cotton is king why may not wool
be (or soon become) queen tn a large por
tion of the South and Southwest? In
deed, wool is already a great factor of
prosperity and wealth in some sections,
notably in Texas, though its production
might easily be largely augmented there
as well as in other portions of the South.
Sheep husbandry, and particularly the
growing of fine wool, may be rendered a
very profitable business in the moun
tainous regions of the South, which are
not adapted to cotton or other crops re
quiring cultivation. Large areas of cheap
lands now lying waste might be mate
profitable by stocking them with sheep
and ridding the country of dogs and
other enemies to wool husbandry. Sheep
can be kept far cheaper in the mountain
ranges of the South than in either the
North, East or West. The late Hon.
Henry S. Randall, author of that excel
lent work, “Sheep Husbandry in the
South” (which we commend to the read
er,) in his “Practical Shepherd,” first
published in 18G3, estimates the cost of
keeping sheep on the highest priced
land in New York and New England on
which sheep are usually kept for wool
growing purposes, at $2 per head per
annum. And he adds: “In extensive
regions of the South and Southwest the
cost is mainly comprised in the expense
of herding, salting and shearing, and
where the number of sheep kept is large,
does not exceed 25 cents a head. But it
would be more profitable in those re
gions to provide some kind of shelter
and give a little feed in the height of
winter, and this would increase the cost
of keeping to 50 cents a head.” In the
same connection the author says that “in
some of our Western and Northwestern
States, where sheep can have the run of
lands belonging to the Government or to
non-resident owners, in addition to those
owned by the flock-master, the cost of
keeping, including winter shelter, ranges
from, say 75 cents to §1 a head.” These
estimates, by the best American author
ity on sheep husbandry, gives the South
a great advantage over any other section
of the country, and they are probably as
correct to-day as when first published.
Texas, the most noted sheep State, is
said to have over twenty-five ranches
which have each more than 25,000 sheep*
And as to profits, this item is now going
the rounds of the press: “One Texas
farmer (S. Baggett) reports that in 1879
he bought 837 sheep for $4,200, and has
since sold $5,400 worth of wool, and 100
ewes for SSOO. His present flock con
sists of 3,100 head, which he values at
over $10,000.” Surely there is profit in
wool growing in the South, and it is sur
prising that so little attention is given to
so lurcative a branch of husbandry.
Owners of cheap and unoccupied lands
in the cotton Slates, and those adjoining
which have tracts adapted to sheep hus
bandry, will please make a note of this
and govern themselves accordingly.
GIANT TIMBER.
And now to timber, which is destined
to prove a great source of wealth to the
South in the not distant futu-e. It is in
print that “of over 700.000 square miles
of timber land in this country, the South
owns 460,000, or nearly two-thirds. They
will be sources of wealth in a few years
to an extent little dreamed of at pres
ent.” Yes, truly—and if cotton is the
king and wool the (to be) queen, surely
timber is destined to be the giant of the
South. Our quotation proves this—for
as other sections are being rapidly de
nuded of their timber, the South must
’ere long monopolize or lead the trade or
market. The vandalism and greed which
have destroyed or sacrificed the forests
and finest timber of other portions of the
Union, will inure to the benefit of the
Southern States. Georgia alone exhibits
two hundred or more varieties of wood at
the Exposition, and other Southern
sections abound in this source of wealth.
But we have not space to particularize.
Suffice it that the South has a great mine
of wealth in its timber—one which will
rival its minerals, if properly husband
ed.
A newerea is dawning upon the South,
and if its people act well their part it will
frove one of unparalleled prosperity,
ndustry, energy and brain-work are the
only requisites to develop and render
available the vast resources of a region
highly favored by nature. And if the
requisites named are properly invested,
as we are confident they will be, the re
sult must he a triumphant success. “The
South is renewing her youth at the foun
tain of industry,’’ said Senator Vance in
his eloquent address at the opening of
the Atlanta Exposition, and that expres
sive and comprehensive sentence indi
cates hand and head work, energy, pro
gress and a consequent career of unex
ampled prosperity and acquisition of
wealth.
